I can imagine that many people are still struggling emotionally and mentally. So let’s keep supporting one another.Lady Gaga
This is a message Lady Gaga sent to the disaster-affected areas in 2021, ten years after the Great East Japan Earthquake.
It shows her affection for Japan by acknowledging that recovery is still not complete even after so much time, and that emotional support is still needed.
By standing firmly with those who are suffering and grieving while encouraging them to move forward, she gives many people courage and strength.
It also conveys the impression of a message that we must not let the passage of time erode or fade the memory of their pain.
It wasn’t by chance that we made it back alive. This is our mission.Sandwich Man
These are words from Sandwichman, a comedy duo from Sendai, that express a determination to keep moving forward.
The key point is that at the time of the Great East Japan Earthquake, they happened to be in Kesennuma, Miyagi—one of the disaster areas—while filming a TV show.
They convey what it means that they survived: being alive in that place was both fate and a mission, and they believe they are called to walk forward and pass on the story to the future.
You can feel their love for their hometown and their resolve to carry it on their shoulders as they move ahead.
All you need to do is believe.Peter Pan “Peter Pan”
We’d like to introduce a quote to remember when you’re feeling anxious or worried: “All you need is just to believe.” These words are spoken by Peter Pan in the story Peter Pan.
Many of us have days when we feel uneasy or so worried that we can’t sleep.
At times like that, recalling this quote can give you strength.
By trusting that things will be okay, your heart may feel lighter and you may be able to spend your time more peacefully.
It’s one of those phrases you’ll want to keep as a personal charm.
In the midst of difficulty lies opportunity.Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein, a German socialist who proposed the theories of special and general relativity and is often hailed as the greatest physicist of the 20th century.
His famous saying, “In the midst of difficulty lies opportunity,” seems to teach us that there are no chances to be found on smooth and easy paths.
It’s precisely when we face obstacles and hardships—and decide to overcome or solve them—that we encounter ways of thinking and methods we hadn’t considered before.
This idea resonates with Einstein’s own life, from an unknown patent clerk to a figure celebrated as a great person.
It’s a quote worth keeping in mind throughout life and makes an excellent personal motto.
Take the sky as a road, and see the road as the sky.Miyamoto Musashi
An unexpectedly popular character from the manga Fist of the North Star is Juuza of the Clouds.
His free-spirited personality must have made him a beloved figure.
When you’re going to school or work every day, there are days when everything just feels unbearable.
You might even want to quit living a life that runs on rails someone else laid down.
At times like that, please remember these words from Musashi.
They’ll make your heart take wing and give you the feeling you can walk your path freely.
“It’s up to you to decide how you live.” It almost feels as if he’s gently teaching us even that.
Where there’s a will, there’s a way.Abraham Lincoln
Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, is also known for the phrase “government of the people, by the people, for the people.” His election, as a leader who called for the abolition of slavery, sparked the Civil War; he led the Union to victory and greatly amplified the ensuing wave of democracy.
Often hailed as “the greatest president in history,” Lincoln also declared in a speech to the people that “Where there is a will, there is a way,” a sentiment that continues to resonate deeply with Americans today.
God never gives us trials we cannot overcome.Rikako Ikee
Do you believe in God? Whether you do or you don’t, this quote by Rikako Ikee, the competitive swimmer who overcame leukemia, may resonate with you.
If you think that no trial is given that cannot be overcome, you might find the courage to face that trial.
Not giving up and saying “it’s no use” could be the key to success.
In fact, the more someone has gone through hardships like she has, the more they can be said to have been helped by their own words in overcoming adversity.
She has actually left many remarkable quotes, so please remember them when times are tough.
